My name is Dr. Marc Hagebusch and I am the head instructor and co-owner of Texarkana Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing with my wife of 20 years, Jennifer.
I want to personally thank you for visiting Texarkana Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing online.
I have trained in BJJ since 1995 and I am the only Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt in East Texas (well, I was until I promoted 2 students to black belts on 4-17-10; congratulations Kevin and Matt!) . I also have trained in traditional martial arts (tae kwon do and karate), jeet kune do (Bruce Lee's style), kickboxing, wrestling, and judo. I'm a chiropractor, practicing in Texarkana. I have 2 dogs (if you want one, then let me know- I'm serious) and a new beautiful daughter, Carley.

We have an extremely successful competition team. We have the only Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) team in the area with a winning record. Plus, we are not a karate or tae kwon do school that has learned some limited Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or Mixed Martial Arts...

Most of our students want to get in better shape, reduce stress, have fun, develop self defense skills and self confidence... and this is where we really excel in helping our students achieve their goals!
